    Letter of the dead

    Dark ominous woods and burnt meadows,
    Some feeble leaves and a dry dead rose.
    Scream of life falls to the quietude of dead,
    Walks where a cadaver with a fitful head.

    Fissure running down the unclad feet,
    To cross her path amidst the bygone fleet.
    Black dull eyes scaling the whole graveyard,
    A bygone soul with an old love card.

    The fragile old smile seems pristine,
    His few last words like sips of wine.
    His love outstrips the barriers of coffin,
    A mere white cloth turns to green.

    But miffed he returns to his own grave,
    For she’s still alive and is clock’s slave.
    His letter to her needs a few more toil,
    Unless both of them share the same brown soil.
